    Tips for Vegas- It's an expensive place to go. Cost me half my net worth when I went there. I suppose getting hitched to my (still)lovely Wife was ample recompence. In short, go gambling, it's cheaper!!!!

    Tips for Vegas

    1) Stay on the Strip. You are nearer the action plus, it's safer

    2) Have every third day planned for a non-poker activity, keeps your head clear

    3) Try different card rooms

    4) Take in several shows. If you watch the early show, it doesn't affect your poker

    5) If you want a tan & to play poker, sleep in the sun but be careful. Use sunscreen & turn over every 30 minutes

    6) Take time to play poker Downtown - it's fun & the games are softer

    7) Play cash, it's easy money

    8) Ask Ryan, he knows more than most

    Have a Great Show Guys!!!

    but Don don't you read the forum
    so many posters say it is harder to play against fish
    and they'd rather play against players who know what they are doing
    on that basis i have to choose last years November nine for my table

    well at least i might learn something before my eventual demise

    I have been lucky enough to satellite in to 4 wsop mains, and the difference in the standard of tables is staggering. Agree re qualifiers, with 1 exception:-I once had an 80-yr-old grandma who had only ever played with friends before, who had bought in. Her attitude was that she would dine out for years on this, and asked me to name another world championship you could just buy into!

    Best tip-arrive in the US in plenty of time to get acclimatised-one year I was penalised for snoring at the table!

    It is an awesome experience-who wouldn't want to play in a $50 million tournament!

    if on the FT #13 inconsistent and difficult to read
    if an initial table full of niners #1 super tight ABC

    edit: although last time i played geldmode #13 against the plo8 hilo dymers here i got totally destroyed. So maybe #9 would be safer and more appropriate for the November nines

    Guys,

    Can you post any questions about the transition to Sky Poker TV on the thread,
    HERE

    We want to keep all the talk of the transition in one thread, so everyone can see it all.

    Also, Jules & Sowa have enough on their plate with tonight's Live Show, so they won't be fielding questions on the topic.

    Thanks.
  • edited March 2015
    Jules you have not been on the show much lately and sorely missed. I suggest you ask Ryan who is on the show a lot just how many cream cakes you have to bribe with.

    hi all have a great show (great show guys keep it up)

    if i had the chance to share the table with anyone it would be mr orford, winning an MTT needs chips, earning chips requires loose calls, who better to make those loose calls that the man himself mr orford calling with the famous orford straights 8765.

    Hi, for the penultiate time (sad face),

    I would definatley have to have Daniel Negranu on my table. A legend and someone who always like to enjoy life and have fun so even if your card dead you always know you will be entertained.

    And Ryan, as much as I like watching you on the show, I am a bit worried for you as surely sleeping on that couch can't be good for you! I mean, how many shows on the trot have you been on? I hope Sky arn't charging you rent!

    Have a great show!

    my tip for Vegas is Satallite into the main event reach the final in November and win it. You will have to fill in the practcal details yourself.

    Looking forward to tonights show!
    Here is my messsage to you and all your viewers;
    It is all about the money!
    Money is the root of all evil!
    I will miss the old sky!
    I have always been reluctant to change.
    I am human after all.
    But to survive,I will change!
    Good luck to the new sky and all who sail in it!
    Sorry to those who lose their jobs!
    When one door closes,another will  open!
    So do not give up hope!

    question for ry ry.

    recent days, the cash tables have had a very loose aggression, maniac style gamee specially post flop.
    what advice would you give on playing hands like AK against maniacs?
  • edited March 2015

    Hey Jules and Ry Ry

    Making the most of every second of tonights show :-)

    Wanted to say thank you for being great sports, been great chatting to you on the shows and sharing my new founded journey of fatherhood and late night showers with you both :-)

    My Poker tip would be to go have fun! Plan to play a selection of events but leave time to explore the city if the poker does not go great.

    Hoping to have a nice deep run this evening and get a hand or two shown in the late stages and of course, get to the 3rd break and take my superstitiousshower hahaha

    Love you guys!

    Matt

    Its not quite Vegas but i qualified for the SPT grand final in 2013 via a micro sat after playing for only 2 weeks, i was terrified on the way down but when i got to my table and started playing the guys picked up i was a nervous newby and started chatting to me. They were some of the friendliest people i have ever met so instead of lasting 2 minutes i was in for about 7 hours and came around 130th. If i was going to Vegas i would not mind who was on my table so long as i enjoyed it as much as i did at the DTD

    My starting table in the main event.....

    Well  - may sound mushey but it would genuinly be the sky poker team!  As a purely recreational player I would not be expecting any run deep but would be there for the pure enjoyment.

    If I had the beautiful Jules, Laura and Anna on one side, the funny Stapes and Orford on the other, Cheeky chappy Ryan crushing it  in front of me and Mr Channing himself and TK talking about the good old days and going off topic more than playing a hand (Super nits) I am sure I would have a great time and would be so memorable.  If a someone busts and it is not me - A guest appearance from RastaFish would not go a miss!!

    After all - most of us play poker for the pure love of the game - and it is great personalities like this that would make it a table to remember :-)

    Enjoying the show as always - Even my little one is being cheeky and trying to watch xx

    My tip for Las Vegas is:

    If you're on a casino crawl down the old strip

    Be aware the Establishment with a neon sign showing a lady cracking a whip.

    May just cost you $20 dollars to leave.

    It certainly isn't a casino as we found out at the end of our crawl.

    The tip is don't take your partner it's a strip joint.

    I haven't heard the end of it! My partner still thinks our visit was planned not an accident!

    Hi Jules and Ryan

    Having played in main event with Sky a few years ago.  My tip for the Viva Las Vegas players is:-

    The main event has 2 hour blinds so you can pick your moments to play your cards, after all the main event is a marathon and not a sprint.  Be patient and enjoy the the poker.

    Hi Jules & the omnipresent Ryan

    My tips for Las Vegas would be short and sweet - don't try and squeeze everything into a short trip. Better to do a few things well than a lot of things in a rushed manner. Also it leaves you with something to come back for next time.

    As for players on my starting table; Channing obviously as he'd at least try and start some conversation. Vicky Coren also for entertaining and intelligent table chat. Marc Wright just to watch how a fellow Cornwall-based player seems to build chips in every big event he plays, and Kara Scott, just to look at!

    Hi Guys,

    Loving the show as usual.  IT's my Tuesday fix. Mrs goes to Spanish classes EVERY Tuesday.  Not sure why tho as she grew up in Madrid!   
    Tips for Vegas?   Well for me it's firstly to try and sat-in! I'd LOVE to go to vegas with Skypoker.  So I'll be trying my utmost over the next few weeks.

    Who would I like on my table in Vegas?  Personally, I'd like people who are there for the craic (pronounced crack) & banter. Ambo Neil Channing woud be first on my list....then ..  Negreanu...Elky..Trickett..Boatman...Esfandiari..Hellmouth..Oh and Scotty77.  Well I wouldn't wanna be first out would I??  ;-))
